NGOs Are They Good for The Country?

Should You Be Concerned?

So why I am writing about this here?

I’ll tell you why, its because I feel not all NGOs are good for our nation, and does the downside to these actually out-way the benefits of them.

NGOs are (Non Government Organizations) On the surface these may seem innocent enough. But lets look a little deeper into this phenomena.

The President’s Speech

ON 27 April 1961, probably before some of you reading this were born, in case you’re not aware of the ground breaking speech that President John F. Kennedy made on that day, to the American Newspaper Publishers Association at the Waldorf Astoria Hotel?

Its possible that your school didn’t inform you of it. So let’s have a talk now.

Here are a couple of excerpts for his speech,

At the 08:09 minute mark this is what he said:

John F. Kennedy: (08:09)

“But I do ask every publisher, every editor, and every news man in the nation to re-examine his own standards, and to recognize the nature of our country’s peril. In time of war, the government and the press have customarily joined in an effort, based largely on self-discipline, to prevent unauthorized disclosures to the enemy. In times of clear and present danger, the courts have held that even the privileged rights of the First Amendment must yield to the public’s need for national security. Today, no war has been declared and however fierce the struggle may be, it may never be declared in the traditional fashion. Our way of life is under attack. Those who make themselves our enemy are advancing around the globe. The survival of our friends is in danger, and yet no war has been declared, no borders have been crossed by marching troops, no missiles have been fired. If the press is awaiting a declaration of war, before it imposes the self-discipline of combat conditions, then I can only say that no war ever posed a greatest threat to our security. If you are awaiting a finding of clear and present danger, then I can only say that the danger has never been clearer, and its presence has never been more imminent.”

At the 09:42 mark this is what he said:

John F. Kennedy: (09:42)

“It requires a change in outlook, a change in tactics, a change in missions by the government, by the people, by every businessman, or labor leader, and by every newspaper. But we are opposed around the world by a monolithic and ruthless conspiracy that relies primarily on covert means for expanding it’s fear of influence, on infiltration instead of invasion, on subversion instead of elections, on intimidation instead of free choice, on guerrillas by night instead of armies by day. It is a system which has conscripted vast human and material resources into the building of a tightly knit, highly efficient machine that combines military, diplomatic, intelligence, economic, scientific, and political operations. It’s preparations are combines military, diplomatic, intelligence, economic, scientific, and political operations. It’s preparations are concealed, not published. It’s mistakes are buried, not headlined. It’s dissenters are silenced, not praised. No expenditure is questioned. No rumor is printed. No secret is revealed. It conducts the Cold War in short with a wartime discipline, no democracy would ever hope or wish to match.”

What this article about is as you can see, he was warning the News Papers in our country that they should keep a eye out for those who would use undo influence to shift the balance of power away from the public to their own designs.

Let me explain’ today our country is inundated with NGOs, You’ve no doubt heard of some of these you may even have been involved in some of them.

By now your asking so what’s my concern? The simple reason for my concern is that isn’t it possible that these NGOs’ are not really working in our best interest, and can it be that some of them are used as tools to undermine our countries sovereignty.

The NGO what really is it?

So what is an NGO anyway? An NGO is supposed to be a group of individuals that come together to form an informal organization in order to discuss areas of common interest. And they are supposed to this without government involvement.

NGOs are supposed to incorporate as a Non Governmental Organization, under the laws of the state in which they are operating.

These requirements vary from state to state. In their documents they are suppose to provide a statement as to what their organizational mission is, the name and identities of the agents involved in the creation of the NGO .

 How Many Exist in These United States

Today there are around 1.5 million NGOs in the United States of America today.

They range the gambit, from volunteer organizations to every cause imaginable.

And their donations come from private individuals all the way to for-profit companies.

No Prohibition on Foreign Funding!

There is currently no law that prevents foreign funding into these organization. UH’ are you kidding me? Can anyone see the dangers here?

Now My Thoughts on all of this’

Going back to John F. Kennedy’s speech shouldn’t we be concerned? Especially when he already warned us that we could be attacked by infiltration instead of invasion. If you think about it what’s to keep a person with deep pockets who donates to these NGO’s form attaining greater control and influence in our nation than what the average citizen could ever hope to attain.

So what’s to stop our politicians from getting in bed with these NGOs in order to attain more power and influence for themselves as well as their political parties.

Have They Not Already Gone to Far?

Although most of these organization are most likely benign, it may be time that we all took a closer look at them. Considering what our beloved President John F. Kennedy warned us about. That there were powerful forces at work within the dark underbelly of our nation that were attempting to control and undermine the will of the people.

My assertion is that these NGOs are being used to feather the pockets of those who run them, rather than truly benefitting those that they portend to help.

Two of the largest of these NGOs organizations are,

The Open Society Foundation, and the Melinda and Bill Gates foundations are some examples of large NGOs.
